WELCOME TO DEERWOOD MEN'S CLUB
Dear Members,
Off to another slow start this year - I guess the rain from last year would have been a better alternative! We are all set to start up the tournament schedule on 6/1. 4 tournaments have been moved to the end of the year, so let's hope the weather cooperates so we are playing tourneys right through the 1st week of October. Presidents cup Qualifier will be the 2nd week of June so let's get those membership dues in and try to get back to (the old) normal !!!!
See the 2020 Tournament Schedule - updated.
Below is how Y'all look walking up to the 1st tee :P
Welcome to the Deerwood Men’s Golf Club for the 2020 Golfing season.
We hope everyone has stayed healthy during the winter months and are looking forward to the new season.
Your officers for the 2020 season are; Tom Gipp – President, Dennis Serefin – Vice President, Dave Walos – Secretary, and Paul Lipinoga – Treasurer. The remainder of the Board of Directors and their committees are: Dave Henninger – Tournaments, Keith Miranto – Prizes, Gary Sullivan – Webmaster, Mark Woodard – Handicaps, Don Sanderson – Publinks, John Nucherino – Entertainment, and Ed Velasquez – Rules and Greens.
To open the season, you are all invited to the Spring Social (suspended until further notice) You should bring a completed application and your dues. The Application can be found at the Deerwood Men’s Website ( https://www.deerwoodmensclub.com ). The yearly dues remain unchanged from last year. ($100 if paid on or before that date) Also, bring a friend along who is not a current member and receive $10.00 off your dues for the year. What a deal!
There are many new items the Board is looking at for the upcoming season. Playing formats, tournaments, Rules and Greens and handicap systems are all being reviewed. We have scheduled our Club Championship on August 1st and 2nd with the picnic to follow on the 2nd. The annual awards banquet will be November 7th, starting at 4:00pm.
We are in good standing financially. We carried over enough money to purchase a new computer. The previous computer was 15 years old. Another decision that has been reached is that we will NOT be joining the new World Handicap System (WHS). For the Club to become a part of this new system, we would have to join the New York State Golf Association which would cost the Club an additional $2,000/yr. We felt that it would not be beneficial for the Club to join this new system at this time. If you wish, you may join that new system on your own for a cost of $40 per member. This is accomplished by going to the NYSGA website and join what is called their “eClub” (https://www.nysga.org/join-the-nysga). You will be hearing more about this new system as the season progresses.
This year we will be starting our tournaments around the first week in May. Hopefully our spring will not be as bad as last year and the maintenance staff will be able to get the course in good playing condition.
See you at the Spring Social!
Tom Gipp – President
Dave Walos - Secretary
